Most Marathi people know who tanhaji is , then how is he unsung? also Saif is playing a rajput, uday bhan. Which rajput wears a black turban? Just a lame attempt to make it seem like the character is Muslim. This is why Bollywood dodos should stay away from historical films So if the villain in a historical flick is a Hindu character, he must be made as Muslim in his dress/mannerisms as possible to make it easier to hate on him. Majority appeasement by Bollywood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Majority appeasement by Bollywood. Rarely happens. No regular Muslim villains , if there are, it has to be a jihadi looking, badebhai ka kurta pehananewaala. Otherwise, it will be a Brahmin looking leech. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They claim it is "based" on a true story, but not that it *is* the true story. Couldn't sit through Bajirao Mastani either.

From the top of my head, Black Friday, Dhoom 3, Fanaa, Mukkadar ka Sikandar and Jungle Book all had 'regular' Muslim characters as villains.

Yoda-esque Posted November 23, 2019 Share Posted November 23, 2019 I remember this from history in school too. It was a ghorpad (iguana) on which Tanaji tied the rope. And why is the movie called Tanhaji? Its Tanaji, isn't it? Tanha ji sounds like Ajay Devgan's state of affairs before he met Kajol.You are right.It was a Ghorpad named Yashwanti.Most Marathas were small and nimble ,weighing around 50 kg and a monitor lizard could hold their weight.You will see surnames like Ghorpade today..they were the expert climbers.Sent from my Pixel 3a XL using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coffee_rules Posted January 20, 2020 Share Posted January 20, 2020 (edited) History buff, knows about the skull mountain of Hindu heads and names his son, taimur. After the moghuls, East Pakistan company invaded India. Anupama Chopra is such a suck up, don’t have high hopes for Shikara.
